Each month, Schoharie's 4-H legislative interns Emma
Bernhardt, Jaydan Guasp, Sarah Helmstadt, Carolyn Krohn, Christopher
Snyder and Emily Stevens attend a variety of meetings and sessions, and
they often gain a first-hand view of the inner workings of government.

The students receive credit for their Participation
in Government class, but their experiences add up to much more.

Their activities have included visits state
representatives including Sen. James Seward. In a post on his Facebook
page, he said, "Great to meet with high school seniors from
Cobleskill-Richmondville Central Schools, Sharon Springs Central School,
and Schoharie Central School District in the Schoharie County 4-H
legislative intern program. As a past member of 4-H, I am proud to see
the program’s traditions continuing with today’s students through this
unique program."
